it's the little things in this movie, mainly meryl streep, that just make me laugh. when she's all depressed and popping pills and she counts to herself "1,2,3,4,5". also when she's on the phone to the head of the retirement village. "all she needs is tlc", "tlc what is that? a new drug"

"Gummy bear" is great! That is what I say whenever something is visually out of place or just not right. Thanks to Ms. Streep for that line's delivery!
I have to say that the aresol cans in the microwave was a good sight gag, too. -

The butt shake is my fave too. I'm an author of trashy fiction and I frequently shake my booty and quote that line when I'm frustrated with my writing. No one gets it but it sure as hell makes me laugh.

Mine is:
Ruth:
Oh Mary Fisher. Any relation?
Mrs Fisher:
My daughter.
Ruth:
Oh, how nice
Mrs Fisher:
She's a slut. Bitch keeps me locked in this dog pound while she lives the life of a princess in her g-damned mansion.
Ruth:
That doesn't seem fair.
Mrs Fisher:
Yeah, I ought to drop in on her one day. That'll scare the beep out of her. -

Meryl Streep is awesome in this movie, my favorite scene line is when she's on Sally Jesse Raphaelthe goes from this sweet sugary disney princess to some crazy deranged depressed woman, and then you see her wearing all black, the big glasses and her new age crystal necklaceand Sally jesse's likethank you for being hereand she responds in this like super dry montoned voice"thank you sally its great to be here"

Oh, there are so many scenes to choose from!
But most definitely the butt shaking! and "I said MOOOVE!"
I don't know about anyone else, but I'm actually surprised Meryl Streep agreed to do this movie with Roseanne. I always wondered if they got along, and if they kept in touch over the years.
But boy, am I glad she did! She was just absolutely perfect for this role. I was surprised she really does know how to be a comedic actress, not just drama. And then seeing her in "The Devil Wears Prada" and "Death Becomes Her", it's no wonder she is one of the BEST actresses of our time, without a doubt.
And I also think Roseanne and Ed did a fabulous job in the movie. I grew up watching "Roseanne", and I still watch it to this day and laugh, (John Goodman and Laurie Metcalf.. their characters would not be the same if they did not play them. "Jackie" was the best character on the show, IMO) and She-Devil did not disappoint me at all, and still doesn't.
This movie is definitely underrated. Definitely. -

Definitely when the butler pulls up in the golf cart with the yoohoo's and cans of easy-cheese, classic awkward comedy bit
but also the mother -> "what royalty? her father was a kosher butcher from Hoboken, a lovely man!"
I kept rewinding that part cause I was convinced that was the highlight of the scene, then Mary comes out and they nail her ass to the wall with the abandoned son stuff, underrated movie:-1
